not impressed w/ the poster, but it has important casts' faces on it. I'd rather the simple drawing in the very begining, assuming it was drawn by chris. it's actually quite intriging. If I didn't know anything about the movie, i would want to find out more about it.

Mhhh.

It's no so bad, but I don't know, the poster is so full of people and they seem so...flat.

Struck by Lightning is playing at the Provincetown International Film Festival in June under the narrative features category. The Provincetown International Film Festival will take place in Provincetown, Massachusetts from June 13th - June 17th.

Looks like I'll be seeing it there on Sunday. neutre

Me too, not only I think it's more interesting look, but Chris looks better here and pictures of Alisson, Dermot or Christina could attract more people.

Shinra17 5/28/2012, 8:41 am

^ Here, Allison, Dermot or Christina are not that big of a name, so I kind of understand why they would go for the teenage and high school approach.

What's the source of the photo of the middle? I like it Smile

Besides I like this one because the big names of Allison, Christina and Dermot have been included, however I'm not sure how known are they abroad.

Emile wrote:The poster everybody hate in better quality:

Is not bad but as some of you have said there're too many people, too many people in a little space and honestly don't like those kind of poster.

fantastica 5/28/2012, 9:11 am

my take? the fan poster LOOKS better. but the official poster has the better "messaging". w the fan poster you hvae absolutely no idea what the movie is remotely about.

brisallie 5/28/2012, 9:28 am

^

Wait a minute! The official poster is the one with the green background? humhum

I thought it was made by a fan o.o Please someone hit me, I can't believe I've been so lost.

^ Is this festival a big deal in the industry? I think it's an event to honor LGBT-related films and LGBT filmmakers, right?

Anyway, glad that SBL is going to close the festival neutre

Yes. Chris was there 2 years ago to present an award for Jane Lynch. I don't know how big it is but among the LGBT events related to film industry, I think it's the best known with the Glaad awards.

If you haven't seen Chris presenting the award to Jane, here's a video, it's not the official video though (it got edited because of some Chris's jokes? lol), he was really funny:

THE FILM COMES HEEEEREEEEEEE!!!!! - For the premiere at the Giffoni Film Festival (and in the same day Dianna Agron will be there)

AND IS STILL SO AFAR FROM MEEE! crycry

~~Btw, gleeffoni? Ugh, no.~~

valkeakuulas 6/12/2012, 2:47 pm

^What is with that picture though? Kurt Hummel in the middle of Struck by Lightning, and I'm assuming Chris the "Glee-actor" advertising is full on? Gleeffoni, does it translate? I'm assuming we will get a lot of Glee references in promotion for all the festivals.

tanita_mors 6/12/2012, 2:58 pm

Weell, he can't really expect to escape the comparison or the connection to glee at this point. it is advertised as part teen comedy/part coming of age story/part drama and chris is only known in the world with relation to glee. i would have been genuinely shocked if he had missed that kind of an introduction. glee is gonna fallow him wherever he goes for a long time, i just hope it's not going to be for a life time.
